Abstract

SUPPORTED BIOPROSTHETIC HEART VALVE
WITH COMPLIANT ORIFICE RING

Abstract A supported bioprosthetic heart valve in which the supporting stent is capable of annular deformation and also of limited perimetric expansion and contraction during heart operation. The stent includes a wire frame composed of a single flexible wire preformed to define inverted U-shaped commissure supports merging smoothly with arcuate portions connecting such supports.

Description

~06~65Z
Background Stented bioprosthetic valves -- that is, supported valvular grafts which may be either xenografts (heterografts) or allografts (homografts) -- are believed to have important clinical advantages over mechanical non-tissue prosthetic valves. Reports on the use of xenograft valves indicate that the risks of thromboembolism are lower, the need for . long-term anticoagulation is minimized, and the nature of ocassional valve failure is progressive, thereby permitting 10 elective reoperation under optimal conditions. Carpentier et al, J. Thorac. Cardiovasc. Surg. 68:771 (1974); ~ ;
Zuhdl et al, Ann. Thorac. Surg. 17:479 (1974); Horowitz et al, J. Thorac. Cardiovasc. Surg. 67:885 (1974).

In general, such grafts have been mounted on supporting frames which provide rigid orifice rings (see patents 3,570,014, 3,755,823; Weldon et al J. Surg. Research 6:54a (1966)), even though some stents have included struts capable of flexing inwardly to a limited extent, thereby reducing stresses imposed on the grafts during valve 20 operation and decreasing possible erosion of surrounding tissues of the patient (see Sugie et al, J. Thorac.
Cardiovasc. Surg. 57:455 (1969); Hardy, Human Organ Support and Replacement, 338 et. seq. (Thomas, 1971); patent 3,755,823). Despite encouraging results in the use of stented valvular grafts, and the significant advantages of bioprosthetic heart valves in contrast to totally artificial prosthetic valves, there is a continuing need for im~rove- -ment, particularly with regard to the long range durability i and reliability of the supported valvular ~rafts.

Summary The present invention is concerned with an improved stent for a bioprosthetic (xenograft or allograft) heart valve which is flexible and, in particular, is capable of yielding to a limited extent in response to forces which tend to alter the configuration and circum-ference of the orifice rin~. Such flexibility and deformability allows the leaflets to close with a sliding type of closure at their free margins which is similar to that observed physiologically,and are believed to be significant in improving long range reliability of the valves.

Conformability of the orifice-defining portion of the prosthetic valve is achieved primarily by utilizina a flexible supporting frame consisting essentially of a single piece or stretch of preformed spring wire. The wire frame is formed to define a triad of axially-projecting circumferentially-spaced commissure supports. Each commissure support has a generally inverted U-shaped .
conflguration with its wire legs merging smoothly at their spaced lower ends with arcuate connecting portions of the wire frame which extend circumferentially between the legs `-of adjacent commissure supports. Each arcuate connecting :
~ portion is capable of being flexed into a condition of _~ ~ greater or lesser curvature, thereby providing limited : ~
; deformability of the frame's orifice-defining elements.
Furthermore,~each of the three arcuate connecting portions m~ay~ be~moved to a slight but definite extent independently of~the~other such portions. Since the wire frame of each 30~ commissure support is of inverted U-shaped;configuration with;the lower ends of the legs thereof normally disposed in spaced-apart relation, the arcuate portions with which the , .~ . ~ . . . . . . . ... . . . ..

lower ends of the legs smoothly merge may he ur~ed circumferentially towards and away from each other in response to forces occurring during operation of the heart.
The result is a flexible frame which is capable of limited changes in dimension and configuration during heart - -~- operation.

Insert elements extend between the circumferentially-spaced commissure supports, each of the inserts having an arcuate upper margin sloping upwardly at its ends to merge smoothly with the contour of the commissure supports. The insert elements may be formed integrally as portions of a web of flexible perforated plastic material circumscribing the wire frame. An outer covering of porous fabric extends about the frame and insert elements to provide means for suturing the valve in place and for accommodating tissue ingrowth. A suitable annular cushioning element is also enclosed within the outer covering to promote coaption, the configuration of the cushioning element depending upon the intended use of the valve in a mitral, aortic, or tricuspid pOSition.

Description Referring to Figure 1, the numeral 10 generally 10 designates a bioprosthetic valve adapted or implantation in the aortic position. Whether the valve is adapted for replacement of a natural aortic valve, or of a mitral or tricuspid valve, depends largely on the size of the valve and the construction of its suturing cuff or ring. As far as this invention is concerned, all three types of valves have the same essential features and, therefore, an aortic valve has been selected only for purposes of illustration.

Valve 10 comprises a stent 11 and a valvular graft 12. Typically, the graft would be a preserved porcine xenograft; however, the stent may be used to support grafts from other species and, if desired, may provide support for an allograft (homograft).

- Graft 12 has three leaflets 13-15 meeting along commissures 15. The treatment and preservation of the graft are now well known, as disclosed in Carpentier et al, J.
Thorac~ Cardiovasc. Surg. 68:771 (1974) and the references cited therein, and need not be discussed in detail here.

Stent 11 consists essentially of a flexible wire frame 16 which is gusseted, padded, and covered with a porous biocompatible fabric so that the completed va]ve may be sutured in positlon within a human heart and will allow the ingrowth of tissue into the fabric coverlng. Frame i6 is generally ~nnular in configuration and consists essentially of a single piece of sprin~ wire formed to define a triad of axially-projecting and circumferentially-spaced commissure supports 17-19. As shown in Figure 2, each commissure support is generally of inverted U-shaped configuration, having wire legs 20 mergin~ smoothly at their 10 spaced lower ends with arcuate connectin~ portions 21. The arcuate connecting portions extend circumferentially and join the adjacent legs of adjoining comrnissure supports.

The wire from which the frame is formed has its ends 22 joined together along one of the arcuate connecting portions 21 by means of a crimped sleeve or coupling 23.
Both the location and the manner of connection are important if long term durability of the stent is to be achieved. The mid zone of an arcuate connecting portion 21 has been found to be an area of relatively low stress and the use of a coupling sleeve or tube, crimped to each of the end portions, avoids the problems of material degradation, and suprisingly rapid fatigue failure, associated with a welded connection.

The wire is circular in cross section and, except 'for sleeve 23, is of substantially uniform diameter throughout its entire extent. Each inverted U-shaped commlssure support has a rounded or smoothly-curved upper end. Similarly, the lower ends of legs 20 of the commissure supports curve outwardly to merge smoothly, not abruptly, with the connecting portions 21.

The frame or wireform may be formed of any sprin~
material which is non-~orrosive, ~atigue resistant, and biocompatible. A particularly effective material is a ~9 . . .
steel marketed under the name Elgiloy by Elgiloy Company, ~ ~ ~ f .

Elgin, Illinois, although other stainless steels or alloys having similar properties might be used.

It will be observed that the arcuate connecting portions 21 in the aggregate define the outline for the orifice ring of the valve. Since the connecting portions or segments are interrupted by commissure supports 17-19, and since the lower ends of each pair of legs 20 are spaced apart, inward flexure of the legs, as depicted in -Figure 4, reduces the spacing between adjacent connecting 10 segments 21 and thereby decreases the effective perimeter of the orifice ring. Thus, frame 16 is capable of limited contraction and expansion as the spring legs of the commissure supports flex inwardly and outwardly.

In addition, the connecting portions or segments 21 are themselves capable of limited flexure. In particular, the curvature of each arcuate segment 21 may increase or decrease slightly. Such flexure permits slight but significant changes in the positions of the commissure supports relative to each other and to the axis of the valve, as indicated in 20 broken lines in Figure 3. In general, the configuration o~
the orifice ring may be altered in response to forces exerted during each beat of the heart in which the bioprosthetic valve is implanted. The result is a valve stent of limited deformability, one which has the capability of expanding and contracting to a slight but definite extent, during heart - operation. Such compliance is believed important not only in achieving improved durability or long-term reliability of the xenograft or allograft, but also in allowing the leaflets to close with a sliding type of closure at their free margins 30 which is more similar to that observed physiologically.

The wirefor~ is covered with a padded, ausseted and porous covering to facilitate attachment, tissue invasion, ~ ~ , . . , . , -.
, i 10696S2 .. . .
and encapsulation. Figures 5-7 illustrate ste~s in the fabrication of the final stent. ~ sleeve 24 o porous biocompati~le cloth is fitted about the wireform and is loosely stitched thereto as indicated in Figure 5. There-after, insert elements which, in thc illustration given, are portions 25 of a plastic web 26, are positioned outside of the sleeve 24 between each of the commissure supports 17-19. The sleeve is trimmed and secured by stitching 27 to the margins of the insert elements. A covering of porous 10 biocompatible cloth 28 is then fitted about the stent, completely enclosing the wireform and inserts as shown in Figure 7. While the cloth may be folded upon itself about the outer periphery of the stent to form a padded suturing xim, it is preferred that such padding be achieved by enclosing an annulus of resilient foam or sponge rubber 29 (Figure 9) within the cloth covering 28. The construction and operation of such padded suturing rims is well known in prosthetic valve construction, being disclosed, for example, in patents 3,099,016, 3,365,728~ and 3,371,352.
.
The cloth layers 24 and 28 may be formed of porous woven or knitted Teflon, although other materials such as Dacron might be used. The insert elements 25 may be formed from a sheet or sheets of polyglycol terephthalate (Mylar~
although other inert ~iocompatible materials such as poly-propylene might be utilized.

The insert elements 25 serve as gussets for increasing the axial dimensions of the stent in the zones -between the commissure supports 17-19 and for providing attachment for cloth 24 and for the xenograft or allograft 30 12. Each insert element 25 of the connected series illustrated in ~igure 8 is provided with apertures 30 through which stitching 27 is extended during fbbrication o the stent.

.:. ' : ' ! .

The upper margin 31 of each insert is arcuate or scallop-shaped to define a smooth transition from the outline of the upper portion of each commissure support. --The three insert elements 25 miaht he separate components individually secured to the cloth-covered wireform but, to facilitate fabrication, it is preferred to form the elements as a continuous web 26, the successive elements being joined by connecting portions 32 (Figure ~).
It is to be understood that neither the connecting portions 10 32 nor the other portions of the insert elements significantly alter the flexing characteristics of the wireform as pre-viously described.

Figure 9 illustrates details of the completed valve with the graft secured to the stent by sutures 33.
The configuration and location of foam insert 29 are particularly suited for use of the valve as an aortic valve replacement. The valve illustrated in Figure 10 is adapted for mitral replacement and, accordingly, has somewhat different proportions. The annular foam insert 29' is 20 positioned and shaped to en~age the mitral annulus, all as well known in the art. Except for the obvious differences -shown in Figure 9 and 10, differences occasioned by the anatomical characteristics of those portions of the human , heart to which the respective valves are to be secured, the valves~ depicted in these figures are essentially the same, both utilizing wireforms as generally shown in Figures 2-4.

While in the foregoing I have disclosed embodiments of~t~he;~invention in considerable detail for pur~oses of illustratlon, it will be understood by those skilled in the 30 art that many of these details may be varied without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
